A copy of Caravaggio’s Medusa on a leather jacket.
Painted by Worthless in December of 2023
It isn’t attached to a band or business entity.
I’m showing off because there is NO OTHER.
I’ve posted some pics of older pieces here.

Amazing. I love that motif and it looks really cool on a leather jacket

This image was used on a rare Judas Priest live bootleg LP from the late ‘70s.

I wasn’t aware! Thanks! I’ll have to find a copy!
It’s been used by many over the past few hundred years

CARAVAGGIO!!!!!!!!!!

haha mad, I made a similar medusa tshirt with a local "direct to garment" print, it lasted only a year or two.

I've stood before the originals (theres a few versions) at Uffizi and gazed into it... hell of a thing

WorthlessEndeavors on Wed, 13/12/2023 - 20:41

Here’s a side by side of the original and the bad copy which is privately held in Milan

WorthlessEndeavors on Wed, 13/12/2023 - 20:40

I bought the image I used for the jacket in the Uffizi

WorthlessEndeavors on Wed, 13/12/2023 - 20:02

I have to disagree. There’s only one original (which I saw in person too) the one in Milan is definitely not Caravaggio. I’m sure there are dozens of copies. Most of the copies are atrocious and were done by others.
Mine will definitely outlast me. The leather will disintegrate before the paint does, which will probably be about 60 years depending on the conditions.

Uffizi is in Florence, not Milan :)

WorthlessEndeavors on Thu, 14/12/2023 - 03:19

No I meant the offending Medusa copy is in Milan in private hands

I neglected to thank you for your comment! And thank you for this amazing site. It’s great to see it’s going strong. A great piece of the old internet the way it should fucking be.
